		<description>Fiorina single handedly almost managed to destroy HP.  Fortunately she got booted out in time to save the company which is now doing well.  But she cost many thousand of Americans their jobs during her destructive reign.</description>

		<description>Watching from New Jersey

I wonder if the fact Sarah has a kid in the service makes her feel she is part of the action and is serving. Every time I hear her words on the war it as if she talking like she has some first hand experience. Her approach to war is a 45 year old acting like a 17 year old cheer leader. Win, Win, Win. It not a football game, it’s a war and life.  Its all the same to Sarah. 

Do you think that when Gen McChrystal ask for 40,000 more troops there may of be a reason that the President took the time to check out the need for request?  Gen McChrystal history shows he has not always given all the facts. Generals are like football quarterbacks. There always looking to go to the Supper Bowl. Only Generals look for that grate historical victory.   

From Wikipedia; 

McChrystal’s unit became well-known for its interrogation methods, particularly at Camp Nama, where it was accused of abusing detainees. After the Abu Ghraib torture and prisoner abuse scandal became public in April 2004, 34 members of the task force were disciplined. 
McChrystal was also criticized for his role in the aftermath of the 2004 death by friendly fire of Ranger and former professional football player Pat Tillman. Within a day of Tillman&#039;s death, McChrystal was notified that Tillman was a victim of fratricide. Shortly thereafter, McChrystal was put in charge of paperwork to award Tillman a posthumous Silver Star for valor. On April 28, 2004, six days after Tillman&#039;s death, McChrystal approved a final draft of the Silver Star recommendation and submitted it to the acting Secretary of the Army, even though the medal recommendation deliberately omitted any mention of friendly fire, included the phrase &quot;in the line of devastating enemy fire,&quot; and was accompanied by fabricated witness statements. On April 29, McChrystal sent an urgent memo warning White House speechwriters not to quote the medal recommendation in any statements they wrote for President Bush because it &quot;might cause public embarrassment if the circumstances of Corporal Tillman&#039;s death become public.&quot; McChrystal was one of eight officers recommended for discipline by a subsequent Pentagon investigation but the Army declined to take action against him.</description>

		<description>Fiorina proved herself doubly stupid by saying she wanted the endorsement.  She alienated those who can&#039;t stand SP and they won&#039;t come back when Sarah refuses to endorse her and alienates those who love SP.   Take away both those blocs, and there&#039;s not a lot left.</description>

		<description>First off, Scarah NEVER forgives, lol, no way would she endorse or help 
crappy Carly. 

The hubby and I are &#039;near&#039; survivors under Carly&#039;s drive HP into the ground. 24 yrs with HP, only to be let go before full benefits at 25, stock price low. I lost respect for HP when they chose her, paid her vulgar amounts of money for years to almost kill the business, then paid her vulgar amounts of money to go away. So many Americans lost their jobs.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think this is going to help her with independents, and that is what she will need to win. If you look at the 2008 Calif election results, the Dem areas went for President Obama big, and I was surprised that many of the traditionally red counties were actually close. So either the red counties are being diluted or their core voters are passing/moving away.</description>

		<description>This morning Sarah Palin quoted the section of this letter calling the President of the United States &quot;son&quot; on her Facebook page:

“I realize you never served in the military and never had to defend your country with your life, but you’re the Commander-in-Chief now, son. Do your job. When your battle-hardened field General asks you for 40,000 more troops to complete the mission, give them to him. But if you’re not in this fight to win, then get out.”

Just who the heck does she think she is by calling the President &quot;son&quot;, his mother?  This woman is a complete joke.  To me, she is implying that &quot;son&quot; should be replaced with &quot;boy&quot;.  My God, such total disrespect for the highest office. I don&#039;t care that she disagrees with the President but to disrespect the highest office by calling the Commander-in Chief &quot;son&quot;
is going way too far and she professes to love the &quot;country&quot;.  The only thing she &quot;loves&quot; is &quot;money&quot; and &quot;herself&quot;.</description>
